Being Vegan, Vegan Being: Justin Figgs – Everything is Interconnected

The moment I realized I wanted to go vegan was the combination of watching the documentary The Cove, and after attending and bearing witness at an LA Animal Save pig vigil. Seeing these two different things really helped me understand how interconnected everything is.

How long have you been Vegan?

I have been vegan since December 2016.

Why is being Vegan important to you?

Being Vegan is important to me because it’s the way to really show full compassion and respect for all animals and the planet.

Do you actively promote veganism? How? Please share any stories you would like.

Yes, I’m an activist and try to promote as much as I can. Everything from bearing witness at vigils to participating in cubes of truth and marches. I also use Instagram to promote veganism as much as I can. You can catch me here on Instagram: @jfiggs_
